Hey guys. I wanted to create this section for any questions you may have. I have a few in mind that I want to cover, but I wanted to ask you if you had any specific questions for me. This will be updated with questions periodically, so keep checking back. Anyways, ask away!

Q: What is your equipment? A: I currently lack equipment, as I've had to sell it due to financial reasons. Most the photos that have been posted here were taken with my Canon t1i, and 7D, or a small point and shoot.

Q: Can I use your photo for a drawing reference?A: Yes! I would love to see your finished work. The only thing I ask is that you please link back to the original deviation in the comments and not sell the work commercially (da or otherwise) without prior written consent.

Stock Rules 1: Please credit me in the description, and have a link back to my profile. ( rainylake )2: Please link me to your work! I would love to see what ideas you come up with.3: Please be creative. Don't just change colors and claim it as your own. Do not make stock out of my stock either.4: dA use only, unless specified otherwise. You may contact me by noting me if you wish to use it commercially. I'm willing to negotiate.5: Please do not use in hateful, racist, political works or works with animal cruelty. I have every right to ask you to remove your work if I feel it violates these rules.

General

Q: How did you know today was my birthday?

A: I work for the birthdays team, so if you have gotten a greeting from me, that's how I found it.

Q: Will you give me points/PM?A: I'm sorry, but no. I do not donate to people that beg for these things. Most of my donations to others are entirely random, or people I find at the dAWishingWell.

Q: Can you feature my contest winners?A. Yes! I would love to feature any and all contest winners. Please don't be shy and ask! Send a note my way, and I'd be happy to help.

Q: Can you tell other people about my news? (Contests, commissions, new groups, etc)A. Yes! I would be happy to. Please check out this journal with more information: rainylake.deviantart.com/journ…

Q: I have some other question that you haven't answered? Can I ask you?A. Of course you may. I try to help out as many deviants as I can. If you have a question about the site, how things work, etc, please drop me a line. I will do my best to help you! I have been on deviantart for quite a few years, so don't be fooled by what my profile says. This is just a new account.

Q: What is with your obsession with clicking buttons that lead nowhere? A: That's a long story.

Well, it started as a conversation between me and =James--Steele. I told him I liked to click buttons in the groups we are both a part of (to accept and deny things). It then somehow steered into a conversation about creating a clickable button for me on his profile that did nothing and lead nowhere. He made the button and now when I'm bored, I go on his profile and click it. It's turned into an inside joke, so everytime he draws something for me, it's always button related.

That's not entirely true. Sometimes we like clicking buttons that do stuff. My button is okay, but not nearly as satisfying as voting. And now, I'm an admin for the #iLovePhotographyClub, so I get a lot of submissions == lots of clicking.
